I have not found this to be the case. Juvederm in the lips will typically last 6-12 months if properly injected. Some patients seem to have collagen growth following repeated filler treatments that prolong the results. I don't recommend massage following lip injections as anything that spreads out the filler will be expected to reduce the result of the treatment. I hope this information is helpful for you.

Being a first time patient should not make any difference. I use Juvederm which lasts about six months and we can easily add to it to get the patient to their desired level of fullness. Of course we don't want to over do it . I prefer a change that is somewhat gradual and very natural. I prefer that patients do not massage their lips nor bite it after filler injection to allow it to heal exactly where it was injected for the perfect lips. Daniel Golshani, Beverly Hills.

Lip augmentation can last six to nine months depending on which filler was selected and the amount of filler injected. The key is choosing a board certified dermatologist with expertise in lip injections and choosing the correct filler based on your facial anatomy, lip shape, and desired fullness.
